Environmental values of the historic center and regeneration strategy for provincial towns: focusing on Mediterranean creative cities

物质和社会的恶化是许多历史中心的普遍问题，这座城市就是在这些中心诞生并开始发展的。该研究项目的目的在于向地中海城市学习如何认识带有人类痕迹的历史中心的环境价值。该项目还旨在将这些价值转化为未来城市的资产。对加泰罗尼亚两个中等城市塔拉戈纳和雷乌斯的案例研究强调了重视不同背景的公民文化遗产的重要性，以及提升应该随着时间的推移而传承的城市集体形象的重要性。

Physical and social deterioration is a common problem of many historic centers, where the city was born and began growing. The objective of this research project consists in learning from Mediterranean cities how to recognize environmental values of the historic center with human traces left on it. The project also aims at turning those values to assetsfor the future city. A case study on two medium-sized cities of Catalonia, Tarragonaand Reus, has highlighted the importance of valuing cultural heritage among citizensfrom different backgrounds, promoting as well a collective image of the city which should be inherited over time.
